Gael Clichy won't be tempted by Barcelona bid

Last of the ‘Invincibles’: Gael Clichy claims he feels at home in an Arsenal shirt

Gael Clichy admits he is flattered by interest from Barcelona but insists he is settled in England and wants to focus on winning silverware with Arsenal.

European champions Barca are thought to be considering a £10million summer bid for the 24-year-old, whose contract expires in 2012.

Standard Sport understands talks have not yet begun on an extension and it may be that Clichy will seek assurances over Arsene Wenger's future before committing to the club further. The Arsenal boss will enter the final year of his deal next season.

Real Madrid and AC Milan are monitoring the situation along with Barcelona, who are reported to have shown an interest in signing Clichy last summer only for the player to dismiss the idea.

The left-back has since switched agents to Darren Dein, who also represents team-mate Cesc Fabregas and former Arsenal striker Thierry Henry.

But Clichy said: "It is great that these teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid are looking at me.

"They are great teams as everyone knows but all I want to say is that I am focused on the end of the season. I want to win something here. I have two years left on my contract so it is not a question to answer."

The Frenchman arrived in England days after his 18th birthday in 2003, since when he has developed into a first-team regular and one of the best left-backs in the Premier League.

Clichy is the last surviving member of Arsenal's title-winning 'Invincibles' of the 2003-04 season and is one of the few players in the present squad to have won a trophy with the Gunners.

He feels a great affinity with the club and admits it would be difficult to leave a country he now regards as home.

He said: "I wouldn't say I feel English because some people will be upset with this. But I feel really at home here.

"Whenever I go home and see my family for two weeks, even if I feel really good there, I have to come back to London."

Meanwhile, Johan Djourou has been hit by a setback in his recovery from the knee injury that has sidelined him all season after he missed the reserve team's final game of the season at Portsmouth.

The Swiss centre-back, who suffered cartilage damage while on international duty in August, picked up a knock on the same knee which ruled him out of last night's 3-0 victory.
